Customer Background:

Our client is a well-known CNC tool shop in Nigeria, specializing in high-precision machining for various industries. Recognizing the importance of streamlining production processes, they sought to enhance their material handling capabilities with an advanced overhead crane system. After careful consultation, we understood the client's needs and began designing a solution that would significantly increase their efficiency. 

Customer Requirements:

The client required a 3 ton overhead crane that could seamlessly handle the movement of heavy loads within their facility. Additionally, they sought a reliable crane solution that would provide safe and easy access to the entire work area. Understanding the urgency of their needs, we crafted our design solutions to not only meet but exceed their expectations. 

Overhead Crane Design Solutions:

In order to meet the customer's requirements, we proposed a 3 ton single girder overhead crane. This top running crane design provides a larger lifting capacity while efficiently utilizing the available space in the CNC tool shop. With a span of 11 meters and a lifting height of 7 meters, equipped with a CD single speed wire rope hoist, to keep moving heavy equipment with ease, ensuring smooth operations.

Top Running Bridge Crane Designs:

  • Bridge girder: The bridge girder is the main structural member of the crane, and it spans the width of the crane runway. It is typically made of a welded steel plate and is designed to withstand the forces generated by the crane lifting and moving loads.
  • End trucks: The end trucks are wheel assemblies that support the bridge girder on the crane runway. They are typically equipped with electric motors to drive the crane along the runway.
  • Hoist: The hoist is the mechanism that lifts and lowers the load. It is typically mounted on a trolley that travels along the bridge girder.
  • Trolley: The trolley is a wheeled carriage that supports the hoist and allows it to travel along the bridge girder.
  • Control system: The control system allows the crane operator to start, stop, and move the crane and hoist. It can be either a manual or an electric control system.

In addition to these standard features, there are a number of other design features that can be incorporated into a top running overhead crane, depending on the specific needs of the application. For example:
 
  • Variable speed drives: Variable speed drives can be used to control the speed of the crane and hoist motors, which can improve load handling precision and reduce wear and tear on the crane.
  • Load limiters: Load limiters can be used to prevent the crane from lifting loads that exceed its rated capacity.
  • Anti-sway systems: Anti-sway systems can be used to reduce the load swing during lifting and moving operations.
  • Remote control systems: Remote control systems can be used to operate the crane from a distance, which can be useful for hazardous applications.
 
When choosing a overhead traveling crane, it is important to consider the specific needs of the application, such as the load capacity, lifting height, span, and duty cycle. It is also important to select a crane that is designed and manufactured to meet all applicable safety standards. Contact us to learn more information!

Why Choose Overhead Cranes for CNC Tool Shop?

  • Improved productivity: Overhead hoist cranes can help to improve productivity by automating the lifting and moving of heavy materials and equipment. This can free up workers to focus on other tasks, such as operating CNC machines.
  • Increased safety: Overhead cranes can help to improve safety in the workplace by reducing the risk of accidents and injuries associated with lifting and moving heavy objects. Overhead cranes are typically equipped with safety features such as load limits, overload protection, and emergency stop buttons.
  • More efficient use of space: Overhead bridge cranes can help to make more efficient use of space in a CNC tool shop by lifting and moving heavy materials and equipment overhead, freeing up floor space for other purposes.
  • Reduced costs: Overhead cranes can help to reduce costs in a CNC tool shop by reducing the need for manual labor and reducing the risk of damage to materials and equipment.
 
In addition to these general advantages, overhead crane systems can also offer specific benefits for CNC tool shops, such as:
 
  • Improved accuracy: Overhead cranes can help to improve the accuracy of CNC machining operations by providing precise positioning of heavy workpieces.
  • Reduced setup times: Overhead cranes can help to reduce setup times for CNC machining operations by making it easier to load and unload workpieces from machines.
  • Increased flexibility: Overhead cranes can help to increase the flexibility of CNC machining operations by making it easier to move workpieces between different machines and workstations. 

Various Applications of Overhead Crane Systems:

  • Manufacturing: Overhead cranes are used in a variety of manufacturing processes, such as assembling cars, welding ships, and casting metal parts.
  • Construction: Overhead cranes are used to lift and move heavy materials, such as steel beams, concrete slabs, and prefabricated walls.
  • Warehousing: Overhead cranes are used to store and retrieve goods in warehouses.
  • Shipping: Overhead cranes are used to load and unload cargo ships and trains.
  • Automotive: Overhead cranes are used to assemble cars and trucks.
  • Aerospace: Overhead cranes are used to assemble aircraft and spacecraft.
